Just an idea.
At work (UNI) we have a wireless network, and a wired network, but the
wired doesn't use DHCP.. (don't know why...)
What I thought would be cool was:
For the case of those forced to have IP / GATEWAY / DNS address
unatainable via DHCP, then:
If I connect to a wired network.. do a wireless scan for the ESSID's in
the area (and possibly the MAC addresses of the routers) and auto-set
the IP / Gateway / DNS info based on the wireless router's in the area..
